Major WWE 2016 PPV Calender Changes Revealed

Unless you’ve hidden under a rock; WWE are bringing back the brand split in July. Plenty of questions have been left unanswered, including the state of the monthly PPV events. Jerry Lawler revealed two weeks ago, that WWE are considering introducing more Pay Per View events for the brand split. With rumours suggesting 20 events a year.

Jerry Lawler spoke at the 38th Superman Celebration and informed fans that WWE would like to reintroduce brand specific PPV events. Naturally keeping the big four events as joint events.

According to a user on Reddit, several PPV’s will return as brand exclusive PPV events. As a result, the full WWE 2016 PPV calender has been leaked. It is worth noting that none of this has been officially confirmed. The Reddit user has only posted 4 times on Reddit before and can not be relied on as an accurate source.

None the less, the information makes sense. WWE will want to separate the Raw and Smackdown brands as much as possible. Therefore exclusive PPV events is the way forward. Time will tell if they will be WWE Network exclusives or PPV events.
